75 Channels and Nothing to Watch
 
Now that the Tour is over, what am I gonna watch on tv???  I was rooting for Lance (who wasn't?), but I have to confess to being a big Jan Ullrich fan.  For one, he was riding on a team in East Berlin back when I was living in Berlin, and I tend to pull for the Germans (my family is from there and I lived there)  and he's just a very powerful rider with lousy timing.

I've been in a weird mood the past few days, feeling kinda cruddy, which has been made worse by poor eating habits.  I didn't run this weekend - I was a big slug.  Ugh.

A while back, my husband picked up 2 old but nice Fuji road bikes.  The only problem is that the smaller one has that bar thingie across it (I think of that as a "boy" bike) and I don't know how to get on and off w/o hurting myself.  But all bikes have that dumb bar these days.  I guess I have to learn to get on and off w/o hurting myself b/c I would like to get better with my biking and thats not gonna happen on a $150 Mongoose.

I feel like I am on a fence.  A part of me would like to become fit and athletic and have an active lifestyle.  And a part of me would like to keep my old (bad) eating habits.  Sooner or later, its gonna be time to get off the fence.
